Protein carbonylation, one of the most harmful irreversible oxidative protein modifications, is considered as a major hallmark of oxidative stress‐related disorders. Protein carbonyl measurements are often performed to assess the extent of oxidative stress in the context of cellular damage, aging and several age‐related disorders. A wide variety of analytical techniques are available to detect and quantify protein‐bound carbonyls generated by metal‐catalyzed oxidation, lipid peroxidation or glycation/glycoxidation. Here we review current analytical approaches for protein carbonyl detection with a special focus on mass spectrometry‐based techniques. The utility of several carbonyl‐derivatization reagents, enrichment protocols and especially advanced mass spectrometry techniques are compared and discussed in detail. Furthermore, the mechanisms and biology of protein carbonylation are summarized based on recent high‐throughput proteomics data. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Mass Spec Rev 33: 79–97, 2014.
